Won't know til you go ask about employment at a sporting goods/gunstore. I really don't care about someones age or sex when I am shopping. I do care about someone attempting to BS me into buying something. Be honest & upfront with people, always try to be positive. People will go out of their way to frequent stores with honest & friendly salepeople. The same people will avoid a local store that is staffed by jerks. Good luck on your journey..
